- QPQ done. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:08, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Article was newly created on 18 January thus new enough. With around 5260 characters it is cleary long enough as well. Earwig doesn't show any copyvio, nor do several spotchecks. Article is neutral and well sourced. Hook is definitely interesting and directly cited. QPQ done. Well done! Crispulop (talk) 17:10, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
